Neil Harris described Millwall`s play-off triumph at Wembley as arguably the finest day of his career. Harris, the Lions` all-time record goalscorer over 12 seasons with the club, had experienced play-off disappointment four times prior to Saturday`s 1-0 victory over Swindon. And after the game, the striker, 32, said: "It`s fifth time lucky for me this year. There`s been too many losing play-off games so I`ve finally put it right. "Honest, I`m not a bad luck omen. 400 games for the club - you`re going to have some good times and bad times. This is up there if not the best moment of my career." He added: "We`ve got a bunch of players who are winners, determined to win. We`ve got some senior players who are so motivated, so focused on achieving what they want to achieve in the game. And that`s been all season. "We were ravaged by injury before Christmas and it looked like it was going to cost us, we almost caught Leeds and we were so proud of the fact we got so close to it. There was no disappointment after the last day of the season, we were really up for the play-off this year. There`s been a calmness among the squad for the last two weeks. Really bizarre, maybe it was just destiny and we knew it."
